I am sorry, kropotkin. To be strong. Don’t lose self confidence.
Some people will value you for your soul and not ask a fish to climb a tree. We are different and still valuable to soul.

My Dad is that way too. He’s just really ignorant is all, so he makes all the decisions for me and I get f’d in the end.
same. i just got into a fight with him and got a domestic violence charge so my life is kinda down the shitter right now
I’m really sorry to hear that. Can you get a doctor or social worker to talk to your parents to explain the nature of the disease to them?
I have an abusive father and brother - I know how you feel
Ive tried to educate them on the matter, but my dad believes you can work hard through anything and partially believes it doesnt exist. and my mom, shes just mean and finds anything to yell about me about
my moms the worst out of my family. im sorry to hear you have similar problems. i wish i was living on my own but i have no money or a job or a car

I’m 66 years old. Therefore I could have had parents like yours as my children. It gives me a little more compassion for them.
There were certain things that sucked about my parents. Now that they’re in Heaven, the conversations go a little easier. That is, I can talk to them all I want and never hear a word back!
My Dad was good about the stigma, at least. He accepted me as I was, and he would fight with anyone who didn’t damn well accept me too.
It is over too soon.
Hey, in general, I don’t think suicides are happy about their choice of killing themselves. It just makes things that much more painful, I’m told.

Do not let them bring you down. For many people mental health issues are difficult to comprehend. Even though I have a very supportive partner who has been with me through the worst, he still, when I am crying without any particular reason asks me why I just do not get over it. And I know he means well, he tries to help me… your parents probably also mean well, try to help you, and use techniques they would use for themselves if they were in difficult time… they never were you, they do now how you feel and no matter how many times you will tell them they will probably not understand. Try to do your thing, try to ignore their comments thinking: it’s them, not me. You are doing your best. That it what matters. Try to get some support outside your family. Have you got sth like a supportive working scheme in your area? Talk to your pdoc or social worker if you have one. We are able to work with our condition, also long term, full time, but sometimes we need some additional support to sustain the employment. Look for different mental health organizations on line where you live, they may help you. Good luck
